Flackwell Heath, United Kingdom MacIntyre Charity Full time

**Looking for a worthwhile job with the hours that work for you ?**

Join us as a Relief Support Worker, we provide support 24 hours a day seven days per week so we can probably offer the hours that suit you.

**How Relief hours work**

It's a bit like a zero hour contract but without the bad bits.
- You don't have to work when it's not convenient for you.
- Receive the same training towards professional qualifications as permanent staff.
- We offer these contracts not because it suits us but because it suits you.
- Job security and career development

The Relief (Bank) post supports the permanent rota staff by completing shifts that are vacant due to annual leave, training and other staff absences. As such, hours are non-specific but your manager will endeavour to balance the needs of the service against your own work/life balance as appropriately as possible.

We normally plan the rotas one month in advance, but additional opportunities also come up due to unexpected staff absences.

**So what would you be doing?**

You will provide invaluable support to six adults with learning disabilities who live in their own Home in Flackwell Heath. So what would you be doing? Who better to tell you than Tom, Greg, Austen, Paul, Jim and Pete*. We asked them what they want from their new support worker. Here's what they had to say.

Things that are important to us about our Support Workers:

- Be nice, open and friendly
- Tell jokes - we all have wicked senses of humour
- Make the effort to engage and communicate with us all
- Use Makaton signs, symbols and objects of reference so that everyone is included (MacIntyre provide communication training around all of these methods)

Support me to ;
- Make a good cup of tea
- Connect with you and others through sensory play
- Go out when we want to
- Go to the pub, picnics and lunches out

Things you need to know about us:

- We love meeting new people and are very welcoming to new people that come to our home
- We all have different but great senses of humour, we need staff that are fun and comfortable being a little bit silly
- We are a house of music and love having the radio on - sometimes full blast
- We like to clean and cook in our home when supported in a positive way.
- Jim* I am very sensory and understand and enjoy the world through touching and exploring objects with different textures; Lego is a favourite
- Things we quite like when we to go out are.. the pub, eating out, social clubs, volunteering with local groups, disco’s, walking, family visiting, Church coffee mornings and Sunday service.
- We love a party and a good old dance - so be prepared to get on your dancing shoes and come for a boogie
- We love to celebrate any and all festive calendar events - so there is always something on or to look forward to

We are hoping new staff might have new ideas on things we might like to do

As you've probably worked out the gentlemen are all very unique, friendly and are full of life and fun to be with, could you support them to lead lives that make sense to them?

**About you**
Experience isn’t always necessary. If you have the right attitude, good customer service skills, share our values and are willing to learn, you’re likely to be a great fit. We are looking for people who celebrate differences, and we strive to make all our staff feel included, valued and respected.

**About us**

MacIntyre is a national charity which supports over 1,200 people with a learning disability and/or autism.

We were founded in 1966 by the visionary parent of a child with disabilities and have been growing steadily ever since. We celebrate and develop everyone’s unique gifts, talents and contributions.

**Training and Development**

At Macintyre we fully support your training and development. We know it can be daunting to start a new job, and not everyone learns the same way, so throughout your probation we will provide you with a mixture of eLearning, face-to-face training and mentoring support whilst on the job.

But it doesn't stop there - throughout your career with us you will have access to our own dedicated in house Learning and Development team, Quality Specialists and HR Teams. These teams, along with your Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally as well as enabling and supporting you to achieve professional qualifications and career progression opportunities - all free of charge.

- Six weeks' annual leave including statutory public holidays
- Workplace Pension scheme - MacIntyre will contribute 3% of your salary to all eligible employees
- MacIntyre Staff Savings Scheme
- Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) to support your health and wellbeing
- Health Cash Plan which provides money back on core health treatments such as: optical, dental, physiotherapy, chiropody (at reduced cost)
